Obtaining referrals will allow you to ensure that the company is efficient and has a positive safety record.

The majority of established snow removal contractors will offer work in progress reports and also a contingency plan if any problems arise.

Good Landscape Design and Build Elements | Southbury, CT

Good Landscape Design and Build Elements | Southbury, CTThe landscape design process involves a few important fundamentals that when practiced in a methodical and organized fashion, can ensure a beautiful and fully functional landscape for your residential or commercial property. The greatest distinction between a landscape design that looks do-it-yourself and one that has a more natural professionally completed design, comes down to adhering to a few basic landscape design principles that we will discuss in this article. Many residents of Connecticut are of the understanding that exceptional landscape design and build involves simply strategically distributing hardscapes, shrubs and trees all over their property. However, there is much more involved in designing and installing a beautiful and functional landscape on your property. Here are a few basic landscape design concepts that Elite Property and Fence of Southbury, Connecticut follows when we perform our landscape installation services.

Simplicity

Using simplicity is the basis of every great landscape design. One of the greatest challenges when designing a layout of your property is finding a way to integrate the different types and sizes of plants and trees, as well as other design factors into a straightforward and consolidated layout. When choosing the types of plants, shrubs, and trees that will best suit your landscape, Elite Property and Fence will take into account how specific weather conditions, types of dirt, insect and pest issues, and a myriad of other elements and situations. We recommend utilizing just a few different colors throughout your garden or landscape to keep the your overall decor theme consistent.

Lines

Line is related to the structural principles of landscape design. It can mostly be pertinent to the way beds, walkways, and entryways move and progress throughout your property. Lines can be constructed vertically by the differences in the height of plants, trees, and shrubs. Line can be constructed in walkways and entrances by the arrangements of plants and shrubs, which can create straight, curved or free-flowing lines.

Natural transition

Natural transition is used to avert profound and drastic changes to your landscape design. Utilizing transition in your design will help you achieve a slow progressive change for your landscape elements. The progressive change can best be depicted by the height and colors of your trees and shrubs. It can also be implemented to other attributes of your landscape design such as the texture of a leaf, roughness or smoothness of the bark, heaviness or lightness of the foliage or other elements utilized in the landscape plan.

The basic landscape design fundamentals listed above, combined with the overall physical layout of your property are the main objectives when planning the landscape design of your property.
